Hello SLOLT!
Jackie and I co-directed a production of Elton John’s Broadway Rock Musical, “Aida”, and it opens this Thursday, May 22nd, at the Clark Center in Arroyo Grande.
This is a thrilling production with unbelievable music, and it performs one weekend only. May 22, 23, 24 at 7:30 pm and a Sunday matinee, May 25th at 2:00 pm.
For tickets call (805)489-9444 or visit www.clarkcenter.orgTickets cost $15 in advance and $17 at the door.
We have some of the strongest high school students on the Central Coast in this show, and honestly the three leads, Joanna Jones, Andy Wilson, and Lauren Seidenberg, are the strongest young performers I've ever worked with.If you can fit it in your busy schedule go see these students. They sing stuff I can't believe people their age can sing, they dance Suzy Miller's choreography like pros, the leads play guitar, bass, drums, piano as part of the action of the play, and most importantly they tell a thrilling story.
May 22, 23, 24 at 7:30 pm and a Sunday matinee, May 25th at 2:00 pm.
You can call (805)489-9444 or visit www.clarkcenter.org for tickets.
We'll see you at the Clark Center.
All the best,
Erik
